The RenalWise application is our first official release of the Staff Schedule mobile app, exclusively for dialysis centers! The initial release gives staff the ability to see their shifts, work locations, and time-off requests in a simple, user-friendly calendar. Additional features will be released for requesting time off, trading shifts with other staff, and picking up open shifts. The application requires that your clinic already be licensed to use the ScheduleWise application and that you have a user account.
